The Gourmet Grid - Dine & Dance
Each issue we’ll be taking you on a gastronomic journey along the coast, stopping on the way at our top picks for each culinary style, dish or must-visit location.
This month it’s all about dining and dancing, as we take a look at some of the best spots in Marbella, where brilliant food comes with a side of great music. Whether you want to get up on your feet and dance for hours or sit back and sway along to the beat, these are the best places in town to do it.
MoSH
The slogan for Mosh Fun Kitchen is ‘eat, drink, party, repeat’, making it the perfect addition to our dine & dance top picks. Chill out on the terrace with a signature cocktail and watch the sun go down, then tuck into sushi rolls, miso black cod, or a beautifully seared steak. As the night continues, let the beat of the music carry you inside, where the party really starts. Be entertained by live shows, music performances and head-turning dancers. Open from 7pm every single day of the week, if you want to dance, Mosh is the place to do it - just make sure you book first!

MAX BEACH
Pool parties might be over for the season but the entertainment still continues at Max Beach. With themed dinner shows, live music and DJ nights, there’s always a great vibe whenever you choose to visit this popular location. The boho-style restaurant offers plenty of dishes, with sushi, grilled meats, sharing tapas, burgers, pizza and more. And they even do a roast on a Sunday, if you’re missing your Yorkshire puds and gravy.

Vudú
If steak wrapped in thin 24k gold foil doesn’t pique your interest, then maybe the restaurant’s signature cocktails, live music, and sophisticated interior design will. Start with a drink on the terrace and relax to the soft music, then make your way inside for a gastronomic experience you won’t forget. And while you linger over the complex and wonderful flavours of the dishes, be entertained by spectacular live performances.

Mamzel at Finca Besaya
For stunning views, live shows, and incredible food, Mamzel is the place to go. Located just a couple of minutes from the Golden Mile, the restaurant overlooks the town and out to the mountains beyond. It’s home to the hottest dinner shows in the area, which are always fully booked (so get in fast!). The menu takes inspiration from cuisines all over the world, with dishes like soft shell crab, gyozas, grilled steak and fish - and with ingredients like caviar and truffle featuring regularly on the menu, it’s definitely fine dining.

La Sala BANUS
As the summer season comes to an end, finding places with live music can become a little bit of a struggle but at La Sala Banús, there’s live music every single day. From renowned musicians, to singers, DJ’s and tribute acts, if you get a spontaneous need to dance, La Sala’s got you covered. Food is also a great experience, with a range of dishes including red tuna satay, king scallops with seaweed and truffle mashed potato, and huge sharing T-Bone steaks. Vegans and veggies are catered for in a big way too, with jack fruit curry, Beyond Meat vegan burger and tartare, and vegetable gyozas. They’re open from 10am for breakfast, or why not make it a bottomless brunch and spend the rest of the afternoon dancing away.
